Edderkopper har vidt forskellige strategier for overlevelse. Derfor er deres udvikling oplagt at studere, hvis man vil forstå arters evolution. Hvorfor er nogle edderkopper sociale, mens andre er det stik modsatte? Hvorfor kan indavl nogle gange være en god idé, når det i andre tilfælde er den sikre undergang? Og giver edderkoppers ofte voldsomme parringsstrategier overhovedet mening? Professor Trine Bilde er ekspert i edderkopper, og hun prøver at overføre viden fra dem til generelle problemstillinger i en tid med truet biodiversitet.
